Exhaust Ticking?
I think I can hear a ticking coming from my midpipe. I have the stock H pipe so I don't know what it could be.
Could this be a gasket or a cat going bad? I did the IAC mod and I heard once or twice that the cat can go becaue of the extra fuel going through the piping.

IMO that sounds like a cat problem, but all of the cat problems i have heard are more than a tick. That could be because they came to me after a while or driving but IDK. i would pull it and check the cat for any moevement inside.

jmac doesnt your car have like 15k miles on it? i dont think the cat will be going bad. just get the car up and check all the clamps on your slp and the gasket between midpipe and catback. i know ive had to get under there and retighten every now and then.
but sounds like a great reason to go o/r

Does it speed up and slow down with engine RPM?
If so, start hunting around and tighten things down.
